Weekly devlog: "Similar, yet very different" edition

Hello all! As you'll see from the list below, I got a ton done this week! In fact, I may have just completed the refactoring!

First, I wanted to thank everybody for being patient with me. I really  appreciate it and I'll admit this took me a lot longer than I expected,  but a lot of that time was recovering from my injury. I'm not 100%  healed yet, but I feel like for all intents and purposes I may as well  be.

Just wanted to say I  have not fully tested the refactored game yet so there may be some bugs I  have to squash, but unlike the old library, I feel very confident that I  can fix the bugs that come up. I also will be able to develop new  dialogue much faster after this refactoring. 

The  old library only let me type one line at a time then I had to use my  mouse for many clicks before I can write the next line. The new library  lets me write to the dialog sort of like a script from a play.

Here are the next steps:

• Rewrite the story a bit so that the characters start as Monster Girls instead of humans that transform into Monster Girls 
• Add new Quest into the game 
• Gradually unlock areas instead of having the whole map available at the beginning 
• See how people like the game
• If people seem to like it without the monster girl art, I'll look for a new monster girl artist

Even  though looking for an artist is the last step on that list, I'm always  open to talking to new artists. If you have a favorite monster girl  artist let me know and I will reach out to them if I think their style  fits the game.
